pic related, they are heirloom tomatoes.

So a tomato is illegal, but crossing the border without a passport isn't?
Literally why?
Italians most likely. Why else?
If you seriously think that you'll get prosecuted for selling a bunch of seeds you're retarded.
This is to stop (((companies))) from selling untested, potentially dangerous, hybrids to loads of people.
See poison potato.
No one fucking cares if a private individual sells some seeds from his garden on ebay.
...
they could be dangerous is grown incorrecrly, there seeds where not govt mandated check etc
if theyre non white otherwise gtfo
It's more likely that those bans are in place to ensure that there is always demand for X product from X European nation instead of seeking potentially cheaper imports elsewhere. It's a soft way to enforce economic stability of the European Union.
See? What did I fucking tell you. Like clockwork.
Dagos thing their cooking is the shit and are stingy about their nightshades.
Europe is the worst continent ever
Wages are literally the same as in Canada but everything is more expensive (switch the $ with a € and that's the price)
Taxes are 50%
Sales taxes are 25%
USA here. I would give my left nut for a couple queen bees from Germany. Importation of bees has been banned in the USA for over 100 years. ( Think African Killer Bees).
I guess I will pack my anus with heirloom tomatoe seeds, fly to Germany, and swap them for queen honey bees.
Not putting them up my ass for the return trip, I have to figure that part I suppose.
heeey..i remember when tomatoes looked like that ... people had them in their gardens
How exactly does banning some rather specific tomato strains do that? I don't see any of those if I go to the market here in the US.
>Only receiving 25% of your earnings
Jesus Christ. How is it even possible to survive over there without just resorting to welfare if you're not working at a high paying job?
Just go to Canada.. wouldn't it be easier to catch a bee here and let it go at the border? Hell you can just go through the border
>How exactly does banning some rather specific tomato strains do that? I don't see any of those if I go to the market here in the US.
You've honestly never seen "beefsteak" tomatoes at Walmart? Carlthecuck.jpg
That's what I said, if I lived in Europe I'd just go on welfare. Don't forget in Western Europe an average apartment is like 500 square foot and cost slike 1500 euros a month
...
Is there any genetic differences between a German queen bee & a north american queen bee?
>That's what I said
I'm not disagreeing with you, I was just commenting on how it must suck to live in Europe.
AHAHAHAHAHA
I remember in middle schooling buying cigarettes and in Euro nigger land you can't even buy a Nerf?
never been in a walmart mostly shop publix
I mean that's what I said too, just resort to welfare. I wouldn't work in Europe, just go on welfare, you end up with the same amount after taxes anyway
Well, Walmart sells beefsteak tomatoes. There is a whole section for them (at least in Indiana).
>In some parts of the world, notably the European Union, it is illegal to sell seeds of cultivars that are not listed as approved for sale.
We know that americans like to eat shit and don't care if their food can be harmful but us in Europe care about our health. That's not something i expect you to understand though.
>I mean that's what I said too
Dude, are you autistic? I was just making a comment not trying to debate.
>we care about health
So tomatos are bad for your health but Ahmed isn't?
Why are you getting pissy? Get the tampon out your ass
Because you don't seem to understand how to hold a conversation. Top kek. Are you actually autistic? Serious question.
dont ever talk to a leaf, you will ALWAYS regret it, they are bitter as fuck
But Canada sucks.
Why are we arguing? This thread is about making fun of Europeans
Niggers what?
The leaf said nothing wrong.
To be fair these heirloom tomatoes don't taste very good
yes.
>not working at a high paying job
Why would you do that? Are you some kind of poorfag? I thought Sup Forums was successful.
>Don't forget in Western Europe an average apartment is like 500 square foot and cost slike 1500 euros a month
Are you retarded? I have a 650sq ft flat and my mortgage is 170 bucks.
>So tomatos are bad for your health but Ahmed isn't?
>le ahmed XD XD
He keeps saying "yeah that's what I said" when I was just giving neutral comments like I was trying to debate or some shit. It's odd as fuck top kek.
>bragging about having a 650 square foot apartment
>hurr why won't the yurocucks let Monsanto flood their market with crossbreeds that can only be grown if protected by some pesticides only made by Monsanto?
>Why would you do that? Are you some kind of poorfag? I thought Sup Forums was successful.
If you took 50% out of every American's check in taxes and slapped a flat 25% sales taxes onto everything, there would literally be riots in the fucking street. We're not used to being that poor (aka European).
Are you fucking retarded?!?!
You said
"Why not just go on welfare"
And I'm like "yeah that's what I said!"
And now you're getting pissy? Are you a woman?
I'm fucking agreeing with you, I've said that before to people
Shut the fuck up dumb cunt
...
>And I'm like "yeah that's what I said!"
You said nothing about welfare until I mentioned it. How autistic are you? Click your ID and read your posts again.
He wasn't challenging your "neutral" statement, autist, you L i t t e R a l l Y reiterated what he said and you took it as some kind of "debate" challenge. Have you ever held a conversation before?
I'm not bragging you idiot, it's an average apartment. Just pointing out that your 1500€/month "average" is fucking retarded.
>be right back gonna go pay my 78000$/month healthcare subscription
>BUT IT'S OKAY BECAUSE AT LEAST MY TAXES ARE SOMEWHAT LOWER HA HA
everyone in the US has a backyard where you can do ALL these things.
You are both fucking retarded.
"This is what I have said in previous conversations I've had with people in the past on how I would live in Europe"
Better?
How much did you pay to buy it
Calling yourself out now?
exactly, only apartment dwellers go to these park things. everyone else watches the fireworks from their own yard
WHO GIVES A SHIT STOP WASTING THE THREAD ON THIS DUMB SHITPOSTING
THIS IS A MAKING FUN OF EUROPE THREAD
fugg
even in moscow we don't have something like this
Most live foreign plant parts and seeds are illegal in most developed countries since they usually haven't been tested to see how invasive or harmful they are. Idiots will buy exotic plants and then propagate them like they're fucking British colonists, wiping out indigenous plants and diluting the natural gene pool. People think they can do these things on their own but they just can't, Nemo.
No its to ensure the hegemony of Monsanto. Heirloom seeds are seeds that keep yielding edible fruit-bearing plants. Monsanto's seeds must be bought again every year, the seeds in their fruit does not produce fruit again.
Is this u
35K for the apartment, 7K in taxes and fees.
Every municipality can make their own rules and regulations
Loud noises apparently
>You will never live in rural Alaska/Canada
Why even live? Fuck I wish I could just live up there.
>be right back gonna go pay my 78000$/month healthcare subscription
It's 25 - 30 dollars tops and you can opt out of it if you want to. However, you'd be uninsured and pretty fucked if you suffered a major injury.
EU can't chew through plastic like a sea turtle kek
Well either way I said Western Europe, you ain't Western you're niggerland
Geez. The price on Tokarev's has really gone up lately.
Every border between us looks like that
>be right back gonna go pay my 78000$/month healthcare subscription
ummm get a job that pays for it, holy fuck you are the quintessential poorfag
>backpedaling this hard
top kek did I hit a tough spot kiddie?
How's that $1.5million mortgage and $195k student loan going?
This, there's enough invasive shit all around like bullfrogs kudzu and rabbits. There's always the chance that a non-native species can spread way out of bounds and fuck up the ecological balance of a region
yeah this is the case here too, but we don't have that level of a security theater (although we do have plenty of this at subway and railway stations)
Don't have a student loan, never even finished high school and I'm making $5,000 a month because I'm not a retard or lazy.
That's what? 100,000,000,000 lira?
its illegal where i live to do fireworks in your backyard but everyone does it anyways it sounds like a warzone on the 4th and new years
the police do catch people but they cant get everyone
I don't know what a security theatre is
That's so racist, I can't even believe people like you still exist.
Obviously all bees from all countries are effectively identical and the "names" and "breeds" we use for them are just societal constructs.
Check your privilege asshat.
>lire
>2017
What are you my grandpa? The last time I used the lira I was in 7th grade.
And you still haven't replied about the mortgage.
A 650 sq ft falt goes for what in Canada, 900K? 1 million? 1.5?
Rent is what, 2-3K?
What's the point of paying lower taxes if you send all your paycheck to Chang the landlord?
This.
Why do you think the government is subsidizing factory farms? Monsanto. They want to steal our land and feed us chemicals until we haven't a rational thought and the only option is to go off grid and use valuable goods without tax as currency.
>Pay no tax and the government will fall.
1,000 square foot i think is about 500k in Toronto, my rent is $900 a month, that's pretty average here, maybe $1200 depending on how New the building is.
It's always old Europeans who are the landlord never a coloured
wired.com
Some of them are really cute.
If you go outside Toronto, it's maybe $300 a month for a 1,000 square foot apartment, about 300k for an acre of land and 2,000 square foot
In Toronto a house is really expensive though
Not sure how many square feet, but my 2 bedroom apartment with indoor parking across the street from a subway in Toronto is 1500.
Prices drop quickly the further you get from Toronto.
Nope.
I raise bees in Michigan.
The DNA of USA bees is severely inbred. Huge mortality, and susceptibility to disease.
I would easily pay $1000 for a fresh queen from northern Germany.
Nazi bees = best bees.
No one pays much for health insurance.
My health insurance is dirt cheap. Waaaaaaay cheaper than what any Euro pays for. My European counterparts in my field make about the same as someone in McDonald's while I make $60000 with virtually all my healthcare being free. I work on 1 24hr shift and the I get 48hrs off. You have no idea how nice it is to be working only a few days a week. My pension after 25 years will be nice too.
Oh and I forgot to mention that I was hired while I was still a teenager :^)
Sounds gay, but there are reasons. Some plants when introduced to other regions grow out of control (i.e., southern states with kudzu and water lillies introduced from Japan.)
There may also be issues with trying to keep the population of predator bugs under control that prey upon other crops native to the region. Heck, it used to be (and might still be) illegal for hobbyists to grow pretty fluffy cotton plants, becaude all they were doing was feeding weevils (that would breed and then attack commercial crops).
How did you become so knowledgeable about bees? Are you a biologist? Autistic? Or maybe both?
Not being rude. I think it's pretty cool t b h
nigga wut
So big orga can sell one time use GMO seeds that you have to buy year after year. It's all in the money, no matter what reason the law says.
First of all, I am an old grandpa type.
When I was 14, I found a wild bee hive in a woodlot in East Lansing, MI., where I grew up.
Long before internets, so I went to the library and checked out every book I could find on the subject.
Fast foreward 45 years. Kids are all grown up and moved out. Bitch of a wife and I split up seven years ago.
Bored. Hey, why don't I raise bees? I always wanted to do that. I also own an apple orchard, the bees pollinate the apples. Then I open a winery and vinyard.
Sometimes life just works out like that.
Also, weapons grade autist, OCD, ACHD.
If it's in Toronto and Vancouver, yeah. Though, that's because Chinese "investors" buy shitholes at ridiculous prices to avoid paying taxes in China and they're driving up the mortgage prices for actual canadian citizens, which is creating the current mortgage crisis we're facing right now.

Just find a racist land lord, my land lord refuses to rent to coloured people, high supply low demand (not as many whites moving to Toronto) means low prices but they get scooped up quickly by good whites and they don't want to leave.
That's pretty cool.
Always nice to have older anons around.
I know where I live near Portland beekeeping is very common. Too bad I'm scared to death of bees(childhood phobia)
Maybe someday I'll man up and see what beekeeping is all about.
If you don't have autism-level knowledge about something, you're a pretty boring person, IMO.
Here in Oregon we have 0% sales tax
Feels pretty good man.
Before World War One Canada had
0% income tax
0% sales tax
The government claimed our taxes were "temporary" to help the war effort
Indigenous plants are shit and often spontaneously combust.
I seriously didn't think you could get arrested for wielding a butter knife either, but that's Europe for you
In Europe it's illegal not to suck a dick, thats what sex education is there and why they need so many reasons refugees, to teach the difference between circumcised and uncircumcised
